The Mumbai Indians are known for digging up hidden gems, and in IPL 2025, they may have found another in Vignesh Puthur, a 23 -year -old Kerala left -handed doll spinner who has not even made his debut in the Senior state yet.
The Mumbai Indians chose Vignesh Puthur for INR 30 Lakhs in the accelerated round of the IPL 2025 auction while the firm raised the eyebrows at that time, the franchise had done its task. Vignesh had impressed in the tests with me, bowling for people like Hardik Pandya under the attentive eyes of Mahela Jayawardne, and even had a period as a net bowling player with my city of the corporal earlier this year, where he came to interact with Rashid Khan.
Vignesh Puthur, the son of an automatic Rickshaw driver, has taken an unconventional path to the IPL. He has represented Kerala only at the levels of children under 14 and under 19 and has not yet made his senior state debut. His talent came to light during the Kerala Cricket League, where he played for Alleppey Ripchles and picked up only two WICKETS in three games. Despite the modest numbers, his unique ability as a row on the left arm wrist caught the attention of the explorers of the Mumbai Indians. He also had a brief season at Tamil Nadu Premier League, further sharpening his game before having a chance at the IPL stage.

Vignesh Puthur shines in single bachelorer for the Indians of Mumbai vs CSK
In the field, Puthur made his first official appearance in the first game of the IPL 2025 against Chennai Super Kings. Appointed as the impact substitute, he was unleashed halfway through CSK inputs and immediately made the difference. He dismissed Ruturaj Gaikwad for 53 at a time when the CSK starter was removing the game, and then eliminated the power batter Shivam Dube, showing excellent control and intelligent use of incorrect.
His first wickt arrived in his first place. Bowling four deliveries ordered in a good length for only four races, Vigneh then exceeded one. Ruturaj Gaikwad, hitting 53 of 25 and looking sinisterly, tried to eliminate the length for a six. But he was wrong at the end of the bat sign, and hid towards the gardener directly on the ground. It was a crucial advance with CSK in 78 for 2 in the eighth, much ahead in persecution.
Puthur hit his second place again, this time eliminating the Hitter Spin-Hitter Shivam Dube. A ball before, Dube was completely defeated by an incorrect incorrect. In the next ball, he tried to counterattack, but only managed to assault the ball without distance. The capture was taken safely throughout. Puthur’s first two Wickets came from mimic attempts to clear the strings.
His third wickt arrived later at tickets when Deepak Houoda fell into the same trap. Trying to accelerate, Hooda also failed to clear the limit and was caught in the depths.
Three Wickts, all of the batters trying to face, showed how well Vignesh used flight, rhythm and incorrect variation to deceive. A dream debut for a spinner without senior domestic experience.

Vignesh’s dream debut gives me a very necessary solution in the Spinning department. The franchise had struggled to find an Indian roulette consisting of the auction. Now, with Vignesh Puthur showing promise, Mumbai’s Indians could match him with Mitchell Santner in turning releases or even playing it as the lonely curling and opening a slot abroad abroad for another player.
While they are still the first days, the rise of Vignesh Puthur of relative darkness to be delivered under pressure on the IPL debut is exactly the type of history by which the Mumbai Indians have become known. His exploration has been first category over the years and to choose Puthur from the desert and unleash him in the first game shows how insurance they are from his talents.
